Experimental evidence for toxic damage induced by a dimeric anthracenone: diast T-514 (peroxisomicine A2).
Dimeric anthracenones obtained from the genus Karwinskia (Rhamnaceae) are characteristic compounds isolated from the plants of this species. Previous toxicity studies demonstrated Diast T-514 to be toxic to animals in experimental settings. Diast T-514 extracted and characterized from Karwinskia parvifolia, was studied in CD1 mice. The LD50 for this compound was determined. Animals were tested with Diast T-514 following enteral and parenteral administration. An LD50 dose by both oral and intraperitoneal administration showed selective damage to target organs.
